Bitter Moon (Grimmhime)

Chapter 13

"So you're telling me that you completely healed that Shinigami brat ?"

"Mhmm." Orihime nodded and stroked Grimmjow's head, gently tugging his soft blue hair.

"And you haven't rested since." Grimmjow looked up at her. His head was comfortably placed in Orihime's lap. Give him the chance and he'd doze off sooner with his tiredness and Orihime's soft fingers running through his hair, gently.

Orihime shook her head no. "Well, now I'm fine Grimmjow San. I can heal you now. Completely."

Grimmjow's eyes met hers. "I don't need it now. You better sleep and do this tomorrow than finish it all at once today."

"But your not healed completely!" She argued. "Also, I can't even rest my head against your chest without it hurting...." She pouted and mumbled under her breath.

Grimmjow sighed and laid on the floor. "Alright. Finish it up."

Orihime smiled."Souten Kishun. I reject."

Immediately Grimmjow was engulfed in the amber light. He shut his eyes and laid there patiently, allowing Orihime to do her work.

Orihime concentrated hard, hoping he'd heal sooner, that she didn't notice Yuki walking in.

"Oho Orihime chan, still healing master are we ?" He chimed.

Orihime looked up and smiled at Yuki. "Welcome home Yuki kun ! Well we had a s-small break..." Orihime looked away and blushed lightly.

"Ahaan... I see. Oh well, Yuki kun here had a long day of work. Quite frankly, I'm sleepy." He yawned and sat on the couch.

"Oi master. Its best if you get into this body as soon as possible! I already caused quite a lot of suspicion among the staff especially that blood haired beauty, Nina chaaaaan." Yuki struck a dramatic pose.

"Nina ? Damn it, that female is already on my case..." Grimmjow mumbled as he looked up at the soul pill possessing the gigai.

"Oh well, sad part is it will be a while before I see her again..." Yuki hung his head.

"Ehh ? Yuki kun, you like Amori San ?" Orihime asked, diverting her gaze from Grimmjow to Yuki.

Yuki smiled and looked at her. "Attracted is the word. I mean come one ! Look at her! Silky wine coloured hair, pale skin like snow, eyes, as deep as an amethyst coloured ocean, spirit as fiery as a phoenix !" Yuki shifted back to his dramatic pose. "If I wasn't a soul pill, I'd probably take up poetry." Yuki rubbed his chin in thought.

Orihime giggled while Grimmjow facepalmed. "That sounded creepy than poetic." He muttered.

"Don't be mean Grimmjow San ! Yuki kun, the way you described her was b-beautiful.." Orihime stuttered.

Grimmjow quickly held her hand. "Oi ! Are you alright ? Stop if you feel like it's too much."

"No no I'm fine ! Just a little bit more..." She concentrated hard. Her tiredness was easily visible. But she was being too stubborn to discontinue.

Yuki sat up straight. "Orihime chan, rest for a bit !"he called out.

Orihime shook her head and narrowed her eyes. "Just a little bit more...."

She held her hand out and concentrated hard for another fifteen minutes till she then sighed and lowered her hands. The amber light disappeared instantly. "D-done...." She breathed out.

Yuki cheered while Grimmjow immediately sat up. Orihime swayed a bit and then placed her forehead on his collar bone. "S-sorry...." She apologised in the breathy voice.
